“It was like stepping into another life for a little while,” recalls Finn. “They are a real band, all with quirky, individual personalities.” He has never met Buckingham. “I don’t think he’s got any beef with me. I sort of hoped in the end that he might think, well, at least somebody’s putting their all into trying to do my do my songs well. There was just one night when two girls down the front had Lindsey shirts on, giving me the evil eye. I just waved and smiled.”

Mick Fleetwood had hoped to record an album with this line-up. “Mick is the flagbearer. He has huge dreams and aspirations for the whole thing all the time. He would have loved us to move it forward, but the stratospheric success of Fleetwood Mac possibly feels like a weight. It’s like moving a mountain.”

Finn did record a song with Stevie Nicks, Christine McVie and Mike Campbell, the gorgeous Find My Way Back Home, released in 2020 to support a New Zealand homelessness charity. It may have been McVie’s last recording before she died in 2022. “That was the last time I saw her. She was performing at a Peter Green tribute that Mick put on. I bought my little set-up and she recorded her parts backstage. Bless her. Christine was just the most beautiful, soulful part of that band, she walked into soundcheck every day with no airs. I’m very sad that she’s not here anymore.”

oops, technically in the wrong forum. sorry!
